We considered this apartment our home away from home in Bangkok in July 2016. The apartment was perfect - the considerate owners thought of just about everything that we needed and we appreciated all the effort that went into providing the small things - it's these small things that made us feel welcome and at home. Things like tea and coffee, detergent, coat hangers and pegs, extra blankets and even a brand new umbrella!

The apartment is just a short motorcycle taxi or taxi-meter ride from Bang Sue subway station or just slightly further to Saphan Kwai BTS which makes a trip to virtually anywhere in Bangkok a maximum of 45 minutes away, even in the heaviest traffic. There's the almost ubiquitous 7-11 downstairs and a few Thai food vendors and we particularly enjoyed chatting with the all-night Pad Thai man who makes memorable Pad Thai. The side street has your standard neighbourhood Thai shops and it's reassuring to know that a cold beer is always close-by. Security seems intelligently managed both at the Condo and in the unit. The Condo has a security team who take considerable note of comings and goings and the apartment has a new Samsung electronic card lock. We always very confident that security was not an issue.
The internet was surprising fast, in fact it's VERY fast. There's fiber-optic directly connected to the building. We were getting WIFI speeds of 100mps down and 30-40 up. These are the fastest speeds I've experienced in a suburban condo. It's actually possible to work online from here without restrictions.

The apartment itself is very clean and has a great view of Bangkok which stretches from one end of the skyline to the other. There's adequate washing facilities downstairs and a well-equipped gym that unlike most other gyms of apartments of a similar size, is actually quite usable and will suffice for most moderate workouts. The pool is absolutely fantastic. It's much larger than we were expecting and we had no problems with the water quality. Best of all, we had it virtually to ourselves almost every time we used it. A leisurely uninterrupted swim in a magnificent pool was certainly appreciated after the hustle and bustle of downtown Bangkok. The apartment also has a new Sony large screen LED TV and two very quiet new air-con units. These items alone make the apartment feel luxurious. This apartment is highly recommended - we're looking forward to returning here again within the next few months.
